Episode 5:Death By Coconuts
Broadcast date: 22 November, 2007
Out of the Galley and Into the Sea: Sean is Cut AdriftAzmyth reclaims the role of Captain, with Ben and Jay as his Officers, and everyone starts bidding on the Royal Pardon to save their skin. After Nessa, with the help of Joe Don, places the highest bid on the Pardon, she is shocked to find out she isn't even a recipient of the Black Spot.
At Pirates' Court, the Pardon would have come in handy for Sean, who is cut adrift because of dubious loyalties.
As Sean floats out to sea, he reflects on the events that led to his departure: "I really was surprised I was cut adrift tonight. There's a lot of conniving going on, on that ship. I think they're trying to cut off some of the stronger competitors. I was kind of blindsided by that one. I kind of blame that little trio of guys I thought I was close with. I mean, all three of them decided to give me a black spot and I'm pretty positive they swayed the votes the way they wanted to go. But I mean it's a game and I got railroaded, man."
Tensions RiseAfter Cheryl is cut adrift, the Pirates head downstairs into the crew quarters. Sean admits to Joe Don that he's glad he wasn't cut adrift, but Joe Don doubts his sincerity.
Across the room, Ben and Nessa lie next to each other while Ben commiserates over Cheryl's departure. "One day, you're searching through the forest for hidden treasure and then the next day, you gotta see one of your friends float off on a pathetic little raft, never to be seen again," he says as Nessa lays her hand on his arm. Sean observes Nessa's flirtation with Ben and doesn't approve of how she's pulling the men on the ship to her side.
Later, Sean confronts Nessa, blaming her for Cheryl's departure, which leads Nessa to counterattack, calling him two-faced. "Sean has made a lot of enemies lately," Nessa explains. "He's talking out of both sides of his mouth. But, you can't go around pissing people off and rubbing people the wrong way like that. It's gonna come back and get you."
Sean left with $2040.
